    As done several times before, we booked a standard cabin at the 'Manning Park Resort', for our…read more4-night stay in 'Manning Provincial Park' last week. For us, the cabin was perfect -- with no accommodation surprises, same type and design as we have become accustomed to, and everything in working order. And we sure loved its location - with its more than ample space out front, and in back, to enjoy all the sights and sounds. The standard cabins have two bedrooms - one with a single, double bed, and the other, with two, twin-sized bunks. Plus, a hide-a-bed sofa in the living room. A well-equipped kitchen, with full-size fridege and electric range, microwave oven, coffee maker, toaster, and long, dining table. Like last year year, the Resort's 'Recreation Centre' was closed. Apparently, staff were working on renovations and such to some of the amenities. A slight disappointment for us, but we had thought it might still be closed due to Covid-19 concerns, so not a huge surprise. Some interesting surprise experiences during our stay though: -- on one day, two large helicopters used the field out front as a base to organize and conduct a search / rescue operation. Several people and dogs were involved, and several flights made to/from the areas being covered. A touch noisy, but sure interesting to watch the activities. -- on the next day, black bears decided to visit - their interests entered on the bbq & garbage container area directly out front from our cabin. We watched (outside from our picnic table) three separate visits over the course of the day, by both adult and younger bears. The colours and sizes of the bears indicated we saw at least three adult bears, and two younger ones. Our very first sighting of any bears there, and we got to watch at least five!! My camera could not do justice to the views, but the sights were rather exciting! 'Manning Park Resort' once again provided a wonderful stay. And the cabin itself, was truly our 'home-away-from -home' for the days spent in the Park. We sure enjoyed the time spent there, and as usual hated to see the time pass by so quickly, and our stay come to an end.

    We attended a wedding at Manning Park Resort and stayed in a standard cabin which was supposed to…read morebe four bunk beds and a queen in a separate room. We ended up getting two bunk beds in a queen in one room and a queen in another room which worked out great with our kids. The cabins are comfortable except for there's no air conditioning in the cabins or even in the lodge. So keep that in mind if staying in the summer. There was a fan provided but only one for the whole entire room at night. It did cool off so we'd open up the windows to cool off the cabin. There was a strange smell, probably from the previous people's cooking in the cabin which was unpleasant for the first day.

    The resort provides portage service that we used between Diablo and Ross lakes. Both directions…read morewere extremely slow and unreliable. On the way into Ross, we were the first at the dock: called in to the office and were told 20-30 min. A truck did arrive after 30 min, but it was loaded with passengers for the ferry that first needed to unload, then ferry passengers (who in the meantime arrived) were loaded in front of us onto the truck and left. Then, a second truck with kayaks came - these were then unloaded and we were finally loaded onto a very stinky, loud, and bumpy diesel truck - with us being right behind the exhaust pipe. The ordeal took about 2 hours. On the way back, we were _again_ the first at the dock and told 20-30 min. A truck did arrive after 20 min, but it was loaded with a motorboat that arrived _after_ us. Our kayaks then did not fit safely on the truck and the driver said "I need to leave.". To my request if they can get a driver for the second truck, someone on the other end of the radio replied "We do not have more than 1 truck on the road, and we're short staffed." About an hour later, the truck returns full of canoes, that first needed to be unloaded and finally our kayaks are loaded onto the truck. The truck driver was switched out with a crew of _2_ drivers. Short staffed? Only 1 truck on the road? This return trip took about 2.5 hours. 2 more things about Ross Lake Resort: - They do not assume any reliability for portaging, so whatever breaks even if they loaded it, is not their fault. - They have a noisy generator running all day long. Lies, unreliable service and prioritizing their own resort guests ahead of others makes this a -1/5 in my book.

    So fun! You can rent a boat, the views are amazing, and all the different little waterfalls are…read morebeautiful

I arrived on Friday afternoon at 2:30 and decided to see if my room was available . I lucked out, check in is at 4 but my room was ready. The staff inside the Inn were very welcoming and warm. They directed me to the area where I would be staying. Having not been here before it was a little confusing as the I originally stopped at the clubhouse to check in, but they sort of directed me to the Inns lobby. The rooms(we stayed in the group 600-1000 units) were very spacious, the beds were comfortable, the views were spectacular. My only qualm was that the tv had purple lines going through it and no volume. When it was time to golf or head anywhere all we had to do was call the front desk for a shuttle and someone would be there within minutes. The drivers were all very nice and happy. The courses were great. Quicksand(par 3) was a challenge but tons of fun. Scarecrow was by far the toughest course and gamble was just amazing. Every once in a while an employee would pull up on the course with free Apples and water which who doesn't love that. The Danny Boy restaurant had some great, high quality food, which I would definitely recommend trying it out over the barn. The barn was the only miss here. Food was dismal(most of it was just plain dry), bartenders were decent but seemed lost at times, but it did have a very nice bathroom! There is also a 18 hole putt putt that has an amazing view. You can play it day or night. They sell glow in the dark balls at the front. The course is fun, just like everything else at this place. I will definitely come back, pending I can find a whole foursome to go with!

    We spent 2 nights here and I have to say that it exceeded our expectations. The course is amazing!…read moreThe service second to none. From the front desk, to the bag staff, to the housekeeping staff, to the shuttle driver , to the bartender - some of the best service we've ever had. Definitely will return!
